Red black and white Valentine tablescape

Hello everyone and welcome to my Red, Black and White Valentine tablescape.

I love the 3 basic colors of Valentines day don’t you?

I created this tablescape using some really cute placemats that my sister made for me.

I love the black and white print because it is so versatile and can go with anything!

Kind of like a basic black dress.

I think adding this red and white unique silverware to the red white and black Valentine tablescape makes it look better than my boring everyday stuff.

I am thinking I might need some more colorful silverware. Maybe green or pink!

Do any of you have colorful sets?

I have used this red handled silverware here and here.

Doesn’t everything look better under a chandelier? Heheh

The steal of the century were these red bowls that I bought a few years back in Texas for only…

are you ready….

.50cents! Oh yeah…loving deals like that!

To make it look even fancier I added in these mini martini glasses with a perfect strawberry in them for fun.

Don’t forget to link up to my Centerpiece Wednesday Linky party each week.

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

Your sister did an excellent job on the placemats and I love how you incorporated those into your tablescape! Love the red, white and black theme. Your utensils are perfect for this table, just the right splash of color and print. Thank you for sharing!

I'm a super-sized fan of the black, red & white combination!!! Your sister made you the perfect placemats for this tablescape that work so well with the salad plates! Doubling the napkin rings to brig both red & white to the mix was a great idea, too! Very, very pretty!!! Thanks for hosting Centerpiece Wednesday again!
